Monday Night Catch Up

A couple weeks ago, while Phil was out of town for the week and Wesley was on spring break, we went to Chuck E. Cheese with Wesley's friend Avery.


Wesley spent about half of his tokens riding this clock ride over and over again.



Even though we had a really fun week, just the kids and I, we were really glad to have Daddy back home!


This past weekend we had a visit from Grandma and Grandad Grzemkowski. Evelyn enjoyed some playtime with both of them.




Wesley enjoyed playing with Daddy's fishing rods and tackle box that Grandma and Grandad brought down. He is really good at casting now, but we think him having the patience to wait for the fish will be the challenge.


One last thing...Evelyn is outgrowing her car seat and we are in the process of switching her to a new one. So, I wanted to take one last picture of her in her infant carrier. Below is a picture of her in it when she was 6 days old.

Here is a picture of her in it, taken this past weekend...Our baby girl is getting big!


Have a wonderful week!

Happy St. Patty's Day!

I hope everyone felt a little luck o' the Irish, today! We had a wonderful 70 degree day, here in Memphis. We enjoyed the sunshine by going to the zoo.


Our day started off with Wesley finding a a piece of leprechaun clothing, which had gotten stuck in one of the 4 leprechaun traps he made out of Legos. The leprechauns left Wesley a treasure hunt, and at the end he found a bag of goodies. He was very excited about it all!



Below are a couple of pictures from our day at the zoo. The perfect day for us and the animals to be out in the sun!

My Week in 2 Words...SICK BABY

Well, not much got accomplished this week, besides snuggling Evelyn...That was SO nice, though. What started with a normal cold two weeks ago, turned into an awful cough and wheezing, then a high fever, and now we have moved onto vomiting (i.e. lots of laundry!). So far, the rest of us have escaped illness, which I am hoping continues. I am posting some pictures of my rosy-cheeked, sick baby girl...She sure is cute with those rosy cheeks! :)













And, of course one of big brother...He was so patient this week, when I had to give Evelyn extra attention. Since one of us had to stay with Evelyn all weekend, Wesley enjoyed some one-on-one time with me, going to the grocery store, playing, etc. And, with Daddy, going to the zoo, church, playing, etc.

Visitors and Other Stuff

Not only did we have my parents visit this past week, but my Aunt Pat and Uncle Don came from Phoenix, AZ for a visit. It was so nice of them to make the trip and it was nice to be able to catch up. They hadn't seen Wesley in 2 years and this was their first time meeting Evelyn.





A lovely picture of Aunt Pat and Uncle Don...Of course, Wesley had to be silly, as usual!





So sweet! Wesley loves to cuddle up and read...Uncle Don was so accomodating!







Aunt Pat snuggling Evelyn in her Beavers sweatsuit.






All of the sudden, Evelyn is really on the move...rolling and scootching all over the place! As you can see, she leaves a trail of toys wherever she goes. She kicks, pokes, rolls over, and grabs at the dog, but Chloe just lays there and takes it...Sometimes she even snuggles in closer!




Evelyn holding her favorite bath toy...A crab squirter.






Evelyn is ready for Mardi Gras in a hat that Bella and Grandpa brought Wesley from New Orleans.




Saying goodbye to Grandpa! :( Time for a nap!

Snow Day!

We had a "big" snow here in south-west Tennessee. We ended up with about 6 inches or so from Saturday afternoon to Sunday morning, and it has stayed cold enough that we still have some snow on the ground. However, it is supposed to be 60 degrees by Wednesday and in the mid-70's by Friday, so the snow won't stick around for long!





Wesley, Bella, and Daddy had a lot of fun throwing snowballs at each other!


Evelyn and Mommy coming in from the cold!
